Boston Armenian Genocide Memorial

 

 Boston and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts have offered hope and refuge for immigrants seeking to begin new lives. 

This park is a gift to the Commonwealth and the City of Boston from the Armenian-American community of Massachusetts. 

This sculpture is offered in honor of the one and one half million victims of the 

Armenian Genocide of 1915 - 1923 

May it stand in remembrance of all genocides that have followed, and 

celebrate the diversity of the communities that have re-formed in the safety of these shores.
